Because contrarianism attracts attention, no matter how silly the assertion.

Yes! but I would also have to be able to chop it just as quickly and then have it grow right back...like back and forth depending on what day it is lol

O/T but don’t you wish you could snap your fingers and grow, like, 16 inches of hair? I love growing my hair long, but after a while I chop it off because I need a change. But it never grows back fast enough for me not to miss long hair.

“Respectability will never save us” just jumped to the top of my list of potential tattoos.

Shoot, his punk a** (those ** are for Rooo; Rooo, I’m cleaning it up!) made me spit out my crunchy granola. (I’m in Cali, we have to eat granola).

I just see a person who is full of joy. I’m a pretty calm person, but would totally run across the red carpet to see, like, Tracee Ross. I would lose my sh*t...I have a painting of her mom on my wall, y’all.

Ha! Damn. Got all personal.

Lol!! I remember when they won! I was on the floor. I don’t think I’ve watched the Oscars since. Nothing can compete with that moment

“Just the fact that this person thinks Tiffany can “embarrass the race” is enough to never listen to a word he says.”

The Oscars needs MORE fun and less uptight bullshit.

I get it and you’re definitely entitled to your opinion Doesn’t sound like its coming from a place of hate either.

believe me, I know, and i can see i’m in the minority.. i don’t hate her, just nervous she goes overboard and becomes a bit cartoonish, thus sabotaging her career.. just a different take, that’s all.

Dom Irrera is awesome! I think he was a bit too avant garde for some back in the day.

Who are these people are making these observations, and why do they matter? I am however, seeing a LOT of black folks I respect defending Tiffany against this minority of lames and that is dope.

Ok, gotcha. THIS part is what I am not seeing AT ALL - probably exactly where our opinions diverge:

Of course, submit all you want, humble white person. I understand what you are saying...just keep doing what you’re doing which is listening. Also ask questions and shit too.

In this context stereotypical behavior (over simplification, but dangerous) - especially those associated with dark skin black women - means being loud, a bit rustic, ingratiating, lacking self-control etc. I am not saying Tiffany is all of that, but recent observations have me a bit nervous. The talent is there, I…

And that princess in England is celebrated for wearing things more than once

Counterpoint: don’t fuck him.

I’m pretty sure I disagree with all of this. Who is doing the stereotyping here? You? White folks? “Our”community? If so, I am NOT in this community...I am in the black as hell, watermelon and chicken eating, calling my friends niggas, wearing a fade and Jordans to work, and not kowtowing to white folks community...
